New-PveNodesQemuSnapshot

Snapshot a VM.

API: POST /nodes/{node}/qemu/{vmid}/snapshot, Proxmox VE API viewer

Aliases: Create-PveQemuSnapshot

New-PveNodesQemuSnapshot
[-PveTicket <PveTicket>]
[-Description <string>]
-Node <string>
-Snapname <string>
-Vmid <int>
[-Vmstate <bool>]
[<CommonParameters>]
Parameter Type Required Description
-PveTicket PveTicket No Ticket data connection.
-Description string No A textual description or comment.
-Node string Yes The cluster node name.
-Snapname string Yes The name of the snapshot.
-Vmid int Yes The (unique) ID of the VM.
-Vmstate bool No Save the vmstate.

Every parameter also binds by property name from the pipeline, so an object with node and vmid properties (the output of Get-PveGuest, for one) fills -Node and -Vmid. Without -PveTicket the cmdlet uses the last connection, see Connection.

A PveResponse: the data returned by Proxmox VE is in .Response.data, the outcome in .IsSuccessStatusCode. See Results and Errors.
